Pathways to explore

Ancient Noto

On Mount Alveria stands the site of ancient Netum: an archaeological area surrounded by nature, rich in medieval remains, rock churches and defensive walls.

 

Cava Grande del Cassibile

One of Sicily’s most spectacular nature reserves, characterized by deep canyons, waterfalls and natural pools surrounded by Mediterranean vegetation. Ancient rock-cut tombs are also found here.

 

Pantalica

A UNESCO World Heritage Site, it holds one of the largest rock necropolis in Europe, with thousands of tombs embedded in the cliff faces. A place where wilderness meets Sicilian prehistory.

 

Cava d’Ispica

A long canyon that combines archaeology and nature: along its paths one encounters rock dwellings, catacombs, and the remains of villages carved into the rock, surrounded by a verdant landscape.

 

Small lakes of Avola

A natural oasis formed by small spring water lakes connected by waterfalls. A cool corner ideal for a walk or a rejuvenating bath, framed by typical Hyblean vegetation.

 

Tonnara and Vendicari Reserve

Just a stone’s throw from the sea, the Vendicari Nature Reserve offers pristine coastal landscapes and extraordinary biodiversity. Here also stands the striking Tonnara di Vendicari, with its ancient ruins that tell of the tradition of tuna fishing, framed by the blue Mediterranean.

 

Alcantara Gorge

Spectacular canyons of volcanic origin, carved over the centuries by the Alcantara River. Basalt walls tens of meters high create a unique setting, perfect for hiking and outdoor activities.

 

Explore with us the places where Sicilian nature meets the island’s oldest history, on an authentic journey through breathtaking landscapes and lost civilizations.
